If you have an existing private variable and you want to expose some public properties then you should do the following:

private string mName;
public string Name
{
   get
   {
      return mName;
   }

   set
   {
      mName = value;
   }
}

You could also avoid the need for the internal private variable by using a Automatic Properties:

public string Name { get; set; }

As JWL has pointed out in the comments you can also set modifiers on getters and setters. Valid modifiers are private/internal/protected.

public string Name { get; private set; }
public string Name { protected get; set; }

Visual Studio Tip:

Set your cursor inside of the field (Private int _i;) and Ctrl R + E This will create the property accessors for you :)

It is also a good practice to implement checking, whether setting up the private variable is really necessary. Like this>

private string mName;
public string Name
{
   get
   {
      return mName;
   }

   set
   {
      if ( value != mName )
      {
           mName = value;
      }
   }
}
